First a preamble:


What's that? Complaining? Sheesh, you commies are never satisfied.

Isaac Asimov on a bicycle, I can't log in!
Try registering first. I was going to port all of the user accounts but then found that sorting users from spambots was taking too long, so the only user accounts I pre-registered are team members.

If you were orange over there you're orange over here. Otherwise you need to re-register.

I'm pre-registered. My password isn't working.
Passwords on here are randomly generated. Click here to reset yo shit (http://bound.filefreak.net/forum/login.php?do=lostpw)

Where's all the damn posts?
Not brought over because of impracticality. And it was already past dinner time when I started this.

Where's the rules? And forum info? And feedback section?
Rules and info go into the forums spiffy FAQ feature. Feedback is done via contact form now, but if you want an open discussion on something, just use the general section.

So what about....
Ask the magic eight ball. Until Max pushes something to me, this setup is pretty vanilla, and will be built up as needed.

Now I'm tired. Have a headache. Am hungry and could do with a coffee. Will finish up around here tomorrow. Adios.

The following bill of rights will give you an overview of the privileges you will enjoy once you have registered to these forums. These privileges are unanimous and cannot be taken away if you are a being of rationality and agency.

The Bill of Rights
1. You may post, make threads otherwise edit the beforementioned, without interference from other posters or moderators, in the forums made for you to post in as a user; unless otherwise made void in Clause A this is a material right and thus is for everyone equal.

2. Major changes to the forums such as addition of categories, subforums or otherwise removal of them (subforums), the removal of members/users of the forums, modifications to the layout of the forum or color scheme will be changed through democratic poll vote; poll outcome will become amendment unless made void in Clause B.

3. Major changes to the game such as additions or removals of systems, mechanics or simply weapons and/or other entities must be approved by the people of the forums; it will be possible to vote democratically, through a poll, as to whether, or in which specific way, a certain new option, addition or modification is added to the game. Clause B void stands.

4. Freedom of speech, thought and opinion is upheld on these forums unless voided by Clause C.

5. If the people take a given action to be unfair or otherwise not of proportionate reaction to its antecedent, polls may be made as a referendum, whose outcome will be approved and subsequently ratified.

Clauses

A) You may not post obscenities such porn (child pornography included), or shock images; illegalities of any kind will not be tolerated: links to illegal websites or products, warez, files, whatever - not allowed. 'Spoilering' or non-linking to warez and/or otherwise 'quasi-legal' internet services (such as torrent downloads) will be tolerated.

B) Using bots, spam, repetition of votes or any kind of illegal or quasi-legal way of skewing democratic polls will result in the poll becoming null and void.

C) The moderation and administration team reserves the right to remove users (and their content) if they make themselves guilty of breaking the rules as laid down in the constitution.
